Stress
Dr. Jennifer McManus
Psychologist, PhD, Licensed Psychologist, PLLC
Does this sound familiar? You want to feel calm and peaceful, but instead you feel like you might snap at the weight of a feather or are constantly worried about how to keep your cool through the never-ending hassles of each day. Each day it becomes more difficult to manage this level of stress on your own. Life doesn’t have to go on this way. Hi, I’m Dr. Jennifer McManus, and I help ambitious women find relief from overwhelming levels of stress. It is my mission to provide scientifically informed psychotherapy without sacrificing compassion and genuine concern.

Stress
Madison Zimbal
Counselor/Therapist, LPC-IT
Stress can build quietly over time until it begins to feel constant, showing up as irritability, overwhelm, fatigue, trouble concentrating, sleep difficulties, or a sense that you are always “on” and never fully able to rest. I work with children (7+), teens, and women who are feeling stretched thin by the demands of school, work, relationships, or daily life. In therapy, we focus on identifying what is contributing to stress and how it is impacting your thoughts, emotions, body, and behaviors. Many clients are used to pushing through stress without realizing how much it is affecting their overall well-being. Together, we work on slowing things down and creating space to understand what your mind and body are communicating. My approach is both practical and supportive. I help clients develop coping strategies for managing overwhelm, improving emotional regulation, setting healthier boundaries, and creating more balance in their day-to-day lives. The goal is not just to “handle stress better,” but to reduce the internal pressure that keeps it going. For clients who desire it, Christian counseling can also be integrated to support grounding, peace, and spiritual rest during stressful seasons. Faith can be a meaningful source of comfort and perspective when life feels heavy or out of control. My goal is to help clients feel more grounded, more in control of their emotional responses, and more able to move through life with a sense of steadiness rather than constant pressure.

Stress
Michelle Borowitz
Psychologist, PhD
I know from experience the toll that stress and burnout can take on your well-being, and how difficult it can be to even imagine realistic change. If you're feeling burned out, we'll take a step back and look at your values - the important parts of your life that bring you meaning. Then we'll examine where there might be a mismatch and find areas where there might be potential for change. This could involve increasing your engagement in other activities that fulfill you, removing yourself from a situation or environment that depletes you, strategically engaging with your support network, or other strategies that fit your personal experience. I don't take big decisions lightly, and if considering a major change we'll check in throughout to ensure the steps you're taking are value-consistent and take into account the full context of your needs.

Andrew McKenzie, Psy.D.
Psychologist
When stress becomes chronic, it can feel like you're constantly reacting instead of intentionally living. Together, we'll explore the patterns that keep you feeling overwhelmed, including the thoughts, expectations, or responsibilities that may be contributing to your stress. You'll learn more flexible ways of responding to difficult internal experiences so they no longer have to control your day. Therapy can help you reconnect with what matters most, even during life's busiest seasons.
